Iso/Iec Jtc1/Sc2/Wg2 L2/12-322 ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N4330 L2/12-322 2012-09-27 Title: Proposal to Encode the SANDHI MARK for Sharada Source: Script Encoding Initiative (SEI) Author: Anshuman Pandey ([email protected]) Status: Liaison Contribution Action: For consideration by UTC and WG2 Date: 2012-09-27 1 Introduction This is a preliminary proposal to encode a new character in the Sharada block of the Universal Character Set (ISO/IEC 10646). Properties of the proposed character are: 111C9 Po 0 L N AL 2 Description The is used in some Sharada manuscripts for indicating external sandhi in Sanskrit documents. It is a below-base mark that is written after the syllable where sandhi occurs. The excerpt below, from Bhagavad Gītā 1.1, illustrates usage of the mark (adapted from Lokesh Chandra 1982): Here the occurs in the phrases pāṇḍavāścaiva and kimakurvata . In the first phrase, it indicates ⃓ + + ⃓ vowel sandhi between ca and eva (°a e° → °ai°); in the second it indicates fusion of a bare consonant and a vowel between kim and akurvata (°m a° → °ma°). In this manuscript of the BG, the is written twice in order to indicate sandhi between two long vowels, as in the following excerpt from BG 2.1: 1 Proposal to Encode the SANDHI MARK for Sharada Anshuman Pandey Here the doubled mark occurs in the phrase kr̥ payāvisṭ aṃ , where it indicates sandhi of identical long vowels ++ between kr̥ payā and āvisṭ aṃ (°ā ā° → °ā°). However, the double is not consistently through- out the manuscript for marking long-vowel sandhi. 3 Relationship to Avagraha The graphical shape of is similar to that of ᇁ +111C1 . To be sure, the is also a type of sandhi mark, but it is used specifically in Sharada and other Indic scripts to indicate the elision of word-inital a that results from sandhi initiated by the final syllable of the preceding word. In the Sharada manuscript of the Bhagavad Gītā that is analyzed here, the and are distinctive, as is illustrated in the following example: Here, the (transliterated as apostrophe) occurs in BG 2.22 in the phrase naro’parānị to indicate a-elision in aparānị on account of the visarga in naro (naraḥ), following the rule (°aḥ a° → °o ’ °). However, the usage of is just as inconsistent as usage of in this manuscript. In the below excerpt from verse 1.13, an would be expected at the position marked by the arrow, between śabdastumulo and abhavat: ↑ In other parts of the text, the acts both as an and as a general indicator of external sandhi. The following excerpt from BG 1.40 shows three occurrences of the : In the above phrase kr̥ tsnamadharmobhibhavatyuta, the first and third indicate external sandhi + + + between kr̥ tsnam and adharmo (°m a° → °ma°) and between abhibhavati and uta (°i u° → °yu°), respectively. The second mark plays the role of and represents elision of the initial a in abhibhavati on account of the visarga in adharmo (adharmaḥ). 2 Proposal to Encode the SANDHI MARK for Sharada Anshuman Pandey Given the function of , it is highly likely that usage of the character was expanded by Sharada scribes for indicating other types of sandhi, resulting in the subscript form. While the subscript avagraha may be used by some scribes to represent both external sandhi and a-elision, the normative cannot be used generally for the former. For this reason, it is necessary to encode the as an independent character. 4 Encoded Representation The is written after an orthographic syllable in order to indicate that the syllable represents a word boundary that is affected by sandhi. The mark is not intended for specifying linguistic syllables and, therefore, it does not delimit correct morphological boundaries. This is explained below. In the following excerpt from BG 1.21, the text vākyamidamāha is highlighted: + + The mark occurs after the syllables mi and mā; however, the true word boundaries of the phrase are vākyam idam āha. In the below example from BG 1.40, the text bhavatyuta is highlighted: + The mark occurs after the syllable tyu; however, the true word boundaries are bhavaty uta, or rather bhavati + uta (°i u° → °yu°). In the next example, the text kr̥ payāvisṭ aṃ is highlighted: ++ Here, the doubled occurs after yā, but the true word boundaries are kr̥ payā āvisṭ aṃ . The practice of writing the after the syllable tha embodies the sandhi operation is to be followed in the encoded representation. Following this, the four syllables that occur in the above examples would be represented as: • ᆴᆩ (mi ) = <MA, VOWEL SIGN I, SANDHI MARK> + • ᆩᆳ (mā ) = <MA, VOWEL SIGN AA, SANDHI MARK>. + • ᆠᆶ (tyu ) = <TA, VIRAMA, YA, VOWEL SIGN U, SANDHI MARK> + • ᆪᆳ (yā ) = <YA, VOWEL SIGN AA, SANDHI MARK, SANDHI MARK>. ++ 3 Proposal to Encode the SANDHI MARK for Sharada Anshuman Pandey 5 Ordering The may occur together with ᇈ +111C8 and may either precede or follow the separator: In such cases, the visual order should be preserved in the encoded representation. 6 Glyph Positioning When the is written between a consonant and a left-spacing or non-spacing vowel sign, it should be positioned equidistant between the consonant and the following letter or sign. When it occurs between a consonant and a right-spacing vowel sign, it should be positioned directly beneath the vowel sign. Both of these cases are illustrated below: When two -s occur after , they are centered beneath the sign. 7 References Lokesh Chandra [comp.]. 1982. Sanskrit Texts from Kashmir, vol. 1.

It is used to write Kannada language of Karnataka State in India. This is also used in many parts of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra States of India. In addition, the Kannada script is also used to write Tulu, Konkani and Kodava languages. Kannada along with other Indian language scripts shares a large number of structural features. The Kannada block of Unicode Standard (0C80 to 0CFF) is based on ISCII-1988 (Indian Standard Code for Information Interchange). The Unicode Standard (version 3) encodes Kannada characters in the same relative positions as those coded in the ISCII-1988 standard. The Writing system that employs Kannada script constitutes a cross between syllabic writing systems and phonemic writing systems (alphabets). The effective unit of writing Kannada is the orthographic syllable consisting of a consonant (Vyanjana) and vowel (Vowel) (CV) core and optionally, one or more preceding consonants, with a canonical structure of ((C)C)CV. The orthographic syllable need not correspond exactly with a phonological syllable, especially when a consonant cluster is involved, but the writing system is built on phonological principles and tends to correspond quite closely to pronunciation. The orthographic syllable is built up of alphabetic pieces, the actual letters of Kannada script.

Introduction. The Javanese script, or aksara Jawa, is used for writing the Javanese language, the native language of one of the peoples of Java, known locally as basa Jawa. It is a descendent of the ancient Brahmi script of India, and so has many similarities with modern scripts of South Asia and Southeast Asia which are also members of that family. The Javanese script is also used for writing Sanskrit, Jawa Kuna (a kind of Sanskritized Javanese), and Kawi, as well as the Sundanese language, also spoken on the island of Java, and the Sasak language, spoken on the island of Lombok. Javanese script was in current use in Java until about 1945; in 1928 Bahasa Indonesia was made the national language of Indonesia and its influence eclipsed that of other languages and their scripts. Traditional Javanese texts are written on palm leaves; books of these bound together are called lontar, a word which derives from ron ‘leaf’ and tal ‘palm’. 2.1. Consonant letters. Consonants have an inherent -a vowel sound. Consonants combine with following consonants in the usual Brahmic fashion: the inherent vowel is “killed” by the PANGKON, and the follow- ing consonant is subjoined or postfixed, often with a change in shape: §£ ndha = § NA + @¿ PANGKON + £ DA-MAHAPRANA; üù n.

General Information/ Overview/ Abstract This document lays down the Label Generation Ruleset for Gurmukhi script. Three main components of the Gurmukhi Script LGR i.e. Code point repertoire, Variants and Whole Label Evaluation Rules have been described in detail here. All these components have been incorporated in a machine-readable format in the accompanying XML file named "proposal-gurmukhi-lgr-22apr19-en.xml". In addition, a document named “gurmukhi-test-labels-22apr19-en.txt” has been provided. It provides a list of labels which can produce variants as laid down in Section 6 of this document and it also provides valid and invalid labels as per the Whole Label Evaluation laid down in Section 7. 2.

  • The Local Wisdom in Javanese Thinking Culture Within Hanacaraka Philosophy
    THE LOCAL WISDOM IN JAVANESE THINKING CULTURE WITHIN HANACARAKA PHILOSOPHY Fitriana Kartika Sari STKIP PGRI Ponorogo email: [email protected] Abstract (Title: The Local Wisdom In Javanese Thinking Culture Within Hanacaraka Philosophy). Hanacaraka refers to the written language of Javanese, Javanese script. The name is based on the order of the twenty-Javanese-script, which is started by the series of hanacaraka script. This study aims to describe the local wisdom content of Javanese Thinking culture within the philosophical meaning of hanacaraka. This study used a semiotic approach applied to the main data source, namely Sêrat Kérata Basa. The results showed that (1) the philosophical meaning of the hanacaraka script was fully equipped with the wisdom of Javanese thinking culture in the form of symbolism and othak-athik mathuk which is supported by deep contemplation which involves all the common senses, including the inner sensitivity; (2) hanacaraka philosophy depicts God creature’s (human) circumstances, which is equipped with creation, feeling, and effort; human cannot avoid all God’s fate upon them until the end of their life; human conditions that achieve life harmony due to the ability to unify the manifestation of God and human characteristics, which heats up within themselves; human condition which put God’s order highly by doing all the orders and avoiding all of His warnings. Keywords: local wisdom, Javanese thinking, Hanacaraka INTRODUCTION because human is always eager to know and Javanese local wisdom is the principal find the authentic truth for everything. Human factor of thoughtful thinking which covers tries to seek for the revelating indicator of all then aspects of knowledge, faith, mysteries deeply through the use of all the comprehension or understanding, customs, common senses to gain satisfying conclusive and ethics.

  • An Introduction to Indic Scripts
    An Introduction to Indic Scripts Richard Ishida W3C [email protected] HTML version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.html PDF version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.pdf Introduction This paper provides an introduction to the major Indic scripts used on the Indian mainland. Those addressed in this paper include specifically Bengali, Devanagari, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil, and Telugu. I have used XHTML encoded in UTF-8 for the base version of this paper. Most of the XHTML file can be viewed if you are running Windows XP with all associated Indic font and rendering support, and the Arial Unicode MS font. For examples that require complex rendering in scripts not yet supported by this configuration, such as Bengali, Oriya, and Malayalam, I have used non- Unicode fonts supplied with Gamma's Unitype. To view all fonts as intended without the above you can view the PDF file whose URL is given above. Although the Indic scripts are often described as similar, there is a large amount of variation at the detailed implementation level. To provide a detailed account of how each Indic script implements particular features on a letter by letter basis would require too much time and space for the task at hand. Nevertheless, despite the detail variations, the basic mechanisms are to a large extent the same, and at the general level there is a great deal of similarity between these scripts. It is certainly possible to structure a discussion of the relevant features along the same lines for each of the scripts in the set.

  • Tibetan Romanization Table
    Tibetan Comment [LRH1]: Transliteration revisions are highlighted below in light-gray or otherwise noted in a comment. ALA-LC romanization of Tibetan letters follows the principles of the Wylie transliteration system, as described by Turrell Wylie (1959). Diacritical marks are used for those letters representing Indic or other non-Tibetan languages, and parallel the use of these marks when transcribing their counterpart letters in Sanskrit. These are applied for the sake of consistency, and to reflect international publishing standards. Accordingly, romanize words of non-Tibetan origin systematically (following this table) in all cases, even though the word may derive from Sanskrit or another language. When Tibetan is written in another script (e.g., ʼPhags-pa) the corresponding letters in that script are also romanized according to this table.

  • N4185 Preliminary Proposal to Encode Siddham in ISO/IEC 10646
    ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N4185 L2/12-011R 2012-05-03 Preliminary Proposal to Encode Siddham in ISO/IEC 10646 Anshuman Pandey Department of History University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S.A. [email protected] May 3, 2012 1 Introduction This is a preliminary proposal to encode the Siddham script in the Universal Character Set (ISO/IEC 10646). It is a collaborative effort between the Script Encoding Initiative (SEI) at the University of California, Berke- ley and the Shingon Buddhist International Institute, Fresno, California. Feedback is requested from experts and users of the script. Comments may be submitted to the author at the email address given above. Siddham is a Brahmi-based writing system that originated in India, but which is used primarily in East Asia. At present it is associated with esoteric Buddhist traditions in Japan. Nevertheless, Siddham is structurally an Indic script and its proposed encoding adheres to the UCS model for Brahmi-based writing systems, such as Devanagari and similar scripts. The technical description for Siddham given here may differ from the traditional analysis and philosophical interpretations of the script and its constituent characters and glyphs. An attempt has been made to encode all distinct characters attested in Siddham records, although more characters may be uncovered through additional research. The characters that are proposed for encoding have been analyzed in accordance with the character-glyph model of the UCS. As a result, the proposed encoding may contain characters that are not part of traditional character repertoires. It may also exclude characters that are traditionally regarded as independent letters, such as conjuncts, which are to be represented in the manner specified by the UCS encoding model.

    UTC L2/20-061 2020-01-28 Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set International Organization for Standardization Organisation Internationale de Normalisation Doc Type: Working Group Document Title: Final Proposal to encode Western Cham in the UCS Source: Martin Hosken Status: Individual contribution Action: For consideration by UTC and ISO Date: 2020-01-28 Executive Summary. This proposal is to add 97 characters to a block: 1E200-1E26F in the supplementary plane, named Western Cham. In addition, 1 character is proposed for inclusion in the Arabic Extended A block: 08A0-08FF. The proposal is a revision of L2/19-217r3. A revision history is given at the end of the main text of this document. Introduction. Eastern Cham is already encoded in the range AA00-AA5F. As stated in N4734, Western Cham while closely related to Eastern Cham, is sufficiently different in style for Eastern Cham characters in plain text to be unintelligible to Western Cham readers and therefore a separate block is required. As such, the proposal to encode Western Cham in a separate block from (Eastern) Cham can be considered a disunification. But since Western Cham was never supported in the (Eastern) Cham block, it can be argued that this is a proposal for a new script. This is further discussed in the section on disunification. The Western Cham encoding follows the same encoding model as for (Eastern) Cham. There is no halant or virama that calls for a Brahmic model. The basic structure is a base character followed by a sequence of marks as described in the section on combining orders.
